Thanks Brian. It's particularly encouraging to know that Venetoclax is equally effective outside of the additional oversight of clinical trials, though Tumour Lysis Syndrome obviously still needs to be carefully managed.
Good to see the CLL Society is working to financially encourage new minds into CLL research. I hope you are able to adequately fund promising candidates through donations.

Second Neil’s points. Deeply encouraging and reassuring feedback (from someone who has recently started Venetoclax).

Doc,
Jackie posted this about Venetoclax today.

My question, they feel that non-adherence may be one reason to blame for this mutation. Could a lower dose of Venetoclax also cause this? I know lower doses of ibrutinib are used but generally discouraged when possible.

Not sure there is any data on this being the cause.
